A Stardew Valley player has discovered a hidden purpose for a crop after 100 hours of play.
Stardew Valley is full of hidden secrets and features, but there are some which can go unnoticed for hours thanks to the large amount of content inside the game.
This includes finding more uses for items beyond what they’re initially shown to do, as one fan recently discovered.
Posting on the Stardew Valley Reddit page, user lrrrr25 posted: “After hundreds of hours… I just found out I can put rice in a keg to make vinegar. What else have I been missing??”

They added: “I have a few hundred hours in Stardew Valley and I JUST realized that if you put rice into a keg, it turns into vinegar. Besides beer and vinegar (and obvious stuff like wine), what other keg recipes are easy to miss? I’m starting to think I’ve overlooked a lot.”
Naturally, this has resulted in various people commenting with other hidden recipes and details that Stardew Valley doesn’t overtly tell you.
“Many people miss that corn and sunflower (also sunflower seeds) to make oil in the oil maker since the description is about truffles,” reads the top comment.
“You can fill your watering can at your kitchen sink which was something I thought was neat,” another reads.
“I’m on Year 8, two days ago I realized how to rotate furniture,” another reply reads.
More comments have broken down different mechanics and features that Stardew Valley simply doesn’t tell you. This advice ranges from being able to place torches on fences to wearing the pan as a hat to save a slot in your inventory.
Given the number of comments and upvotes the thread has, it’s easy to see that Stardew Valley is going to continually be the game that keeps on giving. Even one decade on from its release, there’s still a lot to learn and discover.
I myself have around 150 hours in Stardew Valley across a few different platforms, so I’ve played it quite a bit but couldn’t say for sure if I knew all of these. It’s a really deep game.
This also begs the question of what kind of discoveries we’ll be making in another 10 years. ConcernedApe has already confirmed another update will be coming to the game, which may add a load more hidden features and secrets to discover.
